             REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors of
Government Properties Trust, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses of
United States Federal Bureau of Investigation Branch Office - Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania (the Property) for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. This
Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses is the responsibility of the
Property's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Accounting
Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Statement of
Revenue and Certain Expenses is free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures made
in the Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Statement of
Revenue and Certain Expenses. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable
basis for our opinion.

The accompanying Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses was prepared for the
purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission for inclusion in Government Properties Trust, Inc.'s Current
Report on Form 8-K as described in Note 2, and is not intended to be a complete
presentation of the Property's revenue and expenses.

In our opinion, the Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses referred to above
presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenue and certain expenses
described in Note 2 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 in conformity
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
